Pet economy / Mad honey poisoning cases

主持人：Danny Gittings and Janice Wong

On Thursday's Backchat, we're talking about rising pet ownership as a new report reveals there are now more pets than infants and toddlers in China.

Multinational Goldman Sachs predicts the numbers will continue to grow, estimating there will be twice as many pets as under four-year-olds by the end of the decade.

Pet ownership is also on the rise in Hong Kong, with more companies allowing employees to bring their animals to work.

However, restrictions on public transport still linger, with local operators reluctant to let passengers bring animals, except guide dogs.

So how pet friendly is Hong Kong? And how expensive is it to be a "pawrent"?

After 9:45, we'll learn more about recent cases of suspected mad honey poisoning.

9:05am-9:45am: Pet economy

9:05am-9:45am: Joshua Chu, Hong Kong-based lawyer and owner of rabbits Fluffy and McDuffie.

9:05am-9:45am: Melizza Anievas, Senior Vice President of Tokenis3, allowing employees to bring their pets to the office

9:05am-9:45am: Keina Chiu, Hong Kong-based journalist and owner of 20+ pets

9:45am-10:00am: Mad honey poisoning cases

9:45am-10:00am: Aaron Lee, family doctor
